The
New World Order is just what it says,
it is a new way in which governments
will function within each country
but instead of each country being
an individual, the world as a whole
will become one country and be run
by one government with absolute authority.

This
'government' which to some seems fantasy
already exists in the form of a powerful
banking community. It has done for
some years now and is growing in power
each year.

What
proof is there that it exists?

In
1991, at the beginning of the Gulf
war, US President George Bush broadcast
to the world "This is an historic
moment, I am hopeful the fighting
will not go on for long. We have in
the last year made great progress
in ending the long era of conflict
and cold war. We have before us the
opportunity to forge for ourselves
and for future generations A NEW WORLD
ORDER where the rule of law governs
the conduct of the NATIONS".

When
the Gulf war ended America began what
has become a passionate crusade to get
involved within every nations fight
for peace and to solve the Arab/Israeli
question. A worth while endeavor you
say, why should we knock it? Indeed,
world peace is a good and commendable
goal to strive towards, but one must
ask, at what cost to the world. If the
Devil said he would rid the world of
war if you would only put me as you
King, would you? Well the backers of
the New World Order have said YES to
that question, and it is to that end
to which they are passionately striving.

The
History of the NWO

After
WW1 the victorious allied powers decided
to set up the 'League of Nations',
all the countries working together
to rid the world of war. It failed
as it did not have the financial backing
it needed, which could influence the
right people and places.

After
WW11 the United Nations was set up
to do exactly the same thing as the
League did, this time with its HQ
in New York and the financial backing
already based its powers began to
take root and mature.

America
was the right country at the right time
to fuel such an ambitious plan. It had
been groomed and protected and now the
Devil is using America like a network
of arteries to spread the disease around
the world. Prophetically we had the
introduction of Aids as the powers grew
and yet it went unnoticed. A disease
which attacks the defense system of
each person rendering him/her open to
attack from the smallest bug, and given
the 'tag' Aids. The NOW is doing the
same thing attacking each country at
its heart, the financial system, rendering
it powerless and like a company or organization,
ripe for take over. It too had been
given various tags all with 'Aid' in
mind. Military AID, medical AID and
financial AID.

Unfortunately
for this virus there is no cure.

The
masons have an estimated world wide
membership of 6 million, and that
is a conservative estimate. It is
the largest and oldest secret society,
and its roots although lost in the
depths of time and interpretation,
do go back to the ancient mysteries
of Egypt and Babylon. 13 US presidents
and numerous British politicians not
to mention members of the Royal family
have all been Free Masons. It has
been said that every leader and head
of state, in the official photograph
at Israeli Prime Minister Rabin's
funeral was a Mason!

The
History of masonry

Free
Masonry is taken from the religious
mysteries of Egypt and Babylon, it has
unparalleled similarities with the religions
of this era not to be connected. The
free Masons were said to be the Master
Builders and priests who belonged to
secret orders and lodges. These groups
held the key to the elaborate buildings
and the mathematics they used to erect
such giant wonders with seemingly effortless
ease. It is said the Egyptian priests
and Master Masons during the decline
of Egypt, were thrown out and they,
gathering all the secret teachings and
occult knowledge wandered through Europe
and the world passing on their knowledge
only to people who would further their
goals and religion. These priests were
the original Gypsies (E-gyp-t-sies).
Their goal for a New World dashed, by
the rise of the populations anger at
being left to go hungry and poor, led
them to other countries.

Even
back then America was the destination
for the setting up of the New Land or
World. We are finding out now that Egyptians
actually traveled to America and traded
with the Indians. Atlantis is said to
have been situated on the Americas,
a lavish city of Egyptian origin based
around a pyramid shaped university and
seat of learning. It is from this connection
that the native South American Indians
believed unconnected fascination with
pyramids arose.

Masonry
flourished in France and Germany around
1750 and 1800 led on by certain personalities
who appeared to lend glamour and distinction
to the craft. Comte de. St. Germain
and Comte Cagliostro being two of
them. Benjamin Franklin visited the
Court of France in his capacity as
American Ambassador and was introduced
to Masonry, studying it while he was
posted in France.

The
Basics of their belief.

The
actual theology of freemasonry was
encapsulated in 1889 by one of its
leaders, Albert Pike (chosen to lead
the Illuminati in the US), when he
wrote that;

"Lucifer,
god of light and god of good is struggling
for humanity against ADONIS (the God
of the Bible, the father of Jesus Christ),
the god of darkness and evil" And
Pike also recorded the ultimate goal
of freemasonry ;

"the
world will soon come to us for its
sovereigns and pontiffs. We shall
constitute the equilibrium of the
universe and the rulers over the masters
of the world."

If
you want to find out why you should
not be a Mason and a Christian have
a look at http://www.ephesians5-11.org,
it will give you a lot of information.

The
Illuminati is the real driving force
behind the rise of the freemasons
and the setting up of the New World
Order. On May 1st 1776
Adam Weishaupt, a Bavarian who was
immersed in the occult, with the reputation
of a human devil, founded the 'Order
of the Illuminati' (a date which appears
on the American Dollar). The word
Illuminati or enlightened one has
always been used to describe those
people with special supernatural knowledge
or those guided by Lucifer and his
teachings. He joined the free masons
and brought with him his teachings
and secret knowledge of the occult,
thus sealing the masons into the realms
of Lucifarianism forever.

Goals
of the New Society.

The
Illuminati had several goals all designed
to work towards the one goal of putting
Lucifer in his so-called rightful
position as god. They were to be achieved
by placing initiates in key policy
making positions ands financial institutions
in Europe and America. Also;

The
abolition of Monarchy and national
sovereignty, the abolition of private
property and inheritance and the abolition
of normal family life and of religion.

The
Illuminati first through Robespierre,
and Babeuf steered the French revolution
of 1789-94, which brought in a reign
of terror and threatened to topple
the whole of Europe. It was their
philosophy implemented at the time
that a few years later would become
the bible for the communist movement.

In
1847 the Illuminati formed the Communist
League and Marx was commissioned to
write the Communist manifesto in 1848.
Then in 1859 the Illuminati launched
a campaign for International Communism
in New York.

The
Communists were not meant to be the
New World Order but a destabilizing
influence on the world and an opposition
to any free thinking country that may
grow in power. Its goals were that of
the occult but it was a working model
of the strategies which were to be implemented
in the New World Order, abolishment
of sovereignty, monarchy, family values
and religion. It was an oppressive regime,
which leaned towards a secular ideology.
It was not only meant to draw people
away from free thought and God but in
the long run persuade the free world
that finance was needed and a national
coalition, to fight this red enemy.
Either way the Illuminati won.

Lenin,
a student of Marx and a Russian revolutionary,
was in exile in Switzerland when the
1917 February revolution deposed the
Tsar. Who was going to control Russia
now? The Illuminati sent Lenin across
war-torn Europe in a sealed train and
financed his successful October revolution
with Millions of dollars.

The same international bankers also
poured investment into the new government.
In this way the first Communist state
was established.

Interesting isn't it that communist
labor day the world over is May 1st,
the day the Illuminati was founded

Nearly
2 hundred years ago the founder of the
Rothchild banking empire said "Give
me control over a nations economy, and
I care not who writes the laws".
Throughout the 19th century
the International bankers succeeded
in gaining control of central banks
in most European nations. Nationalization
is a cosmetic front. Then in 1913 the
American Federal reserve system was
founded, which contrary to popular belief
is not a government run bank but another
privately held bank, run by the International
conspirators.

The
Illuminati over the years has been
steadily bringing to life the Lucifarian
doctrine of world control by infiltration
of influential bodies, through the
artificial control of food, energy,
finance and international trade. Setting
up groups and nations against one
another, all controlled financially
by them. They make and devise wars
to suit political and financial settlements,
bringing in and taking out leaders
as they see fit.

We
wonder sometimes when policies we are
assured will be put in place, when each
part gets into power are slow to materialize.
This is because the international bankers
have their own policy and this takes
precedence over the parties. Contracts
have been signed when money was borrowed
from the central banking fund set up
by the world bankers to get countries
tied into contracts for just such an
occasion. Markets are made and lost
to manipulate the flow of money from
one source to another.

We
are given the illusion we are self
governing when in fact we are tied
to the world bank like a mortgage.

Prophetically
the seat of this New World Order will
not be in New York, but Europe. The
vision given in Daniel of the image
with 10 toes of clay and iron has
usually been interpreted as referring
to 10 European nations, especially
after the Treaty of Rome was signed
by six nations in 1957 to form the
European community.

This
is difficult to picture now as we have
passed 10 members and the number is
increasing. However studying the teachings
of the New Age movement under freemasonry,
it reveals that another organization
called THE CLUB OF ROME was formed as
recently as April 1968, with the clear
blueprint to establish a world government
by dividing the world into 10 regions.

Most
of the directives for planning the world
bank and government are coming form
this group. The 10 divisions of the
world which are referred to as 'kingdoms'
are more likely to be the fulfillment
of Daniel 2:31-45 and 7:19-28 also revelation
13 and 17:12-14. The kingdoms appointed
by the club are;

North
America

Europe

Japan

Australia

Russia

South
America

North
Africa and the Middle East, including
Israel

Central
and Southern Africa

India
and Malaysia

China

A
little sign that passed relatively unnoticed
which confirms the thought of the powers
is the commemorative stamp issued at
the second European elections. The scene
is taken from a Greek Myth the 'Rape
of Europe' and shows a woman, Europe
riding a beast. If this was not a sign
allowed by God then it was a clear and
brazen attempt of the Devil to rub our
noses into the events unfolding right
beneath our feet.

The
Biblical reference to this Greek myth
can be found in Revelation 17:3,7-17.
In the Bible the Woman is described
as a scarlet clothed woman, a whore
sitting on a beast. She is the religious/political
system by which the Antichrist and thus
the Devil comes to power in the world.
The Woman in the bible clearly rapes
not only Europe but the world.

The
dollar is one of the most widely accepted
forms of currency in the world, and
as such the perfect vehicle to carry
the message of the New World Order.
If you examine the ,dollar
you will see on the reverse are two
seals, one of which depicts an Egyptian
scene. The designs have changed over
the years from the original die from
1782. However the Masonic influence
has not. On closer inspection of the
modern seals we can see yet further
symbolism within the two
designs.

Along
with a new government will come the
new religion. It will have sweeping
powers among governments as it will
encompass all religions under one roof.
This to a Christian is scripturally
wrong. Although God asks for tolerance
of different peoples, He does not with
false religions and teachings. This
'oneness' of religious beliefs is not
only unworkable but ungodly.

The
reason all religions will be accepted
under one roof is purely one of control.
Ultimately one person will be in power,
pulling all the purse strings and controlling
the places and times of worship. Anyone
falling outside the universal belief
will be classed as an outsider a rebel
and against the common good of man.

Who then will take control of this
United Faith? and how will they go
about policing this religion?

Simply the leader will e picked from
an existing religion which, in the mind
of people, already is the head of the
church. He will not only be chosen for
his popularity but also for his potential
financial control. The world leaders
controlling the New World Order are
financially based to control all governments,
and linked to these is the Vatican.
The Pope heads an organization which
is financially linked to most major
governments. There influence over certain
countries is undeniable and the way
in which the Pope is viewed is always
one of overseer and not dictatorial.

The
Global Elite: Who are they?

Introduction

There
are two common misconceptions
held by those who are critical
of globalism.

The
first error is that there is
a very small group of people
who secretly run the world with
all-powerful and unrestrained
dictatorial powers. The second
error is that there is a large
amorphous and secret organization
that runs the world. In both
cases, the use of the word "they"
becomes the culprit for all
our troubles, whoever "they"
might be. If taxes go up, it
is "they" that did it. If the
stock market goes down, "they"
are to blame. Of course, nobody
really knows who "they" are
so a few figureheads (people
or organizations) are often
made out to be the scapegoats.

Depending
on a person's politics and philosophy,
the scapegoats could be the U.S.
President, the ACLU, the Ford
Foundation, or Vladimir Putin.
The point is, the real power structure
is not correctly defined, and
thus escapes exposure.

These
misconceptions are understandable
because when things are wrong,
we all have a driving need to
know who to blame! In some cases,
elitist slight-of-hand initiates
and then perpetuates false assumptions.

This
writer has never been accused
of charging that all large corporations
are guilty of initiating and perpetuating
globalization. There are many
businesses, including banks, who
are led by moral, ethical and
goodhearted businessmen or businesswomen.
Just because a company might touch
globalism does not mean it and
its management or employees are
evil.

Every
bit of thirty-five years of
research indicates that there
is a relatively small yet diverse
group of global players who
have been the planners and instigators
behind globalization for many
decades. The primary driving
force that moves this "clique"
is greed; the secondary
force is the lust for power.
In the case of the academics
who are key to globalism, a
third force is professional
recognition and acceptance
(a subtle form of egoism and
power.)

It
is also important to understand
that core globalists have full
understanding of their goals,
plans and actions. They are not
dimwitted, ignorant, misinformed
or naive.

The
global elite march in three
essential columns: Corporate,
Political and Academic. For
the sake of clarity, these names
will be used herein to refer
to these three groups.

In
general, the goals for globalism
are created by Corporate. Academic
then provides studies and white
papers that justify Corporate
goals. Political sells Academic's
arguments to the public and if
necessary, changes laws to accommodate
and facilitate Corporate in getting
what it wants.

An
important ancillary player in
globalism is the media, which
we will call Press in this report.
Press is necessary to filter Corporate,
Academic and Political communications
to the public. Press is not a
fourth column, however, because
it's purpose is merely reflective.
However, we will see that Press
is dominated by members of Corporate,
Political and Academic who sit
on the various boards of directors
of major Press organizations.

This
report will attempt to identify
and label the core players in
the globalization process. The
intent is to show the makeup
and pattern of the core, not
to list every person in it.
Nevertheless, many people will
be named and their associations
and connections revealed. This
is done for two reasons.

First,
it will equip the reader be
able to accurately identify
other core players as they are
brought into focus. Secondly,
the reader will be able to pass
over minor players who may sound
like "big fish" but in fact
are only pedestrians.

Organizational
Memberships

The
old saying, "Birds of a feather,
flock together" is appropriate
for the perpetrators of globalism.
Sociologically speaking, they
are like any other people group
with like interests: they naturally
tend to form societies that
will help them achieve their
common interests. A side-benefit
of fellowship is mutual support
and encouragement. Once formed,
such groups tend to be self-perpetuating,
at least as long as common interests
remain.

In
modern history, the pinnacle
of global drivers has been the
Trilateral
Commission. Founded in 1973
by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew
Brzezinski, this group is credited
with being the founder of the
New International Economic Order
that has given rise to the globalization
we see today.

The
Council on Foreign Relations

Prior
to the founding of the Trilateral
Commission, the Council on Foreign
Relations (CFR)
was the most significant body
of global-minded elitists in
the United States. As far back
as 1959, the CFR was explicit
about a need for world government:

"The
U.S. must strive to build
a new international order...
including states labeling
themselves as 'socialist'...
to maintain and gradually
increase the authority of
the United Nations."

The
site for the United Nations
headquarters in New York was
originally donated by the Rockefeller
family, and the CFR world architects
worked for many years to use
the U.N. as a means to develop
an image of world order. Indeed,
the CFR membership roster has
been, and still is a Who's Who
of the elitist eastern establishment.

The
first problem with the CFR is
that it became too large and
too diverse to act as a "cutting
edge" in global policy creation.
The second problem is that it's
membership was limited to north
America: What group could effect
global changes without a global
membership?

The
CFR continues to be significant
in the sense that politicians
often look to its membership
when searching for people to
fill various appointments in
government. It also continues
to be a policy mill through
its official organ, Foreign
Affairs.

While
there are a several core global
elitists in the ranks of the
CFR, they represent a very small
percentage of the total membership.
Conversely, there are many CFR
members who are only lightly
involved with globalism. For
this reason, we do not count
the CFR as being central to
globalization today.

The
Trilateral Commission

David
Rockefeller recognized the shortcomings
of the CFR when he founded the
Trilateral Commission in 1973
with Zbigniew Brzezinski. Rockefeller
represented Corporate and Brzezinski
represented Academic.

Together,
they chose approximately 300
members from north America,
Europe and Japan, whom they
viewed as being their "birds
of a feather." These members
were at the pinnacle of their
profession, whether Corporate,
Academic, Political or Press.
It is a testimony to the influence
of Rockefeller and Brzezinski
that they could get this many
people to say "Yes" when they
were tapped for membership.

Out
of the 54 original U.S. members
of the Trilateral Commission,
Jimmy Carter was fronted to
win the presidential election
in 1976. Once inaugurated, Carter
brought no less than 18 fellow
members of the Commission into
top-level cabinet and government
agencies.

Perhaps
no one has described the Trilateral
operation as succinctly as veteran
reporter Jeremiah Novak in the
Christian Science Monitor (February
7, 1977):

"Today
a new crop of economists,
working in an organization
known as the Trilateral Commission,
is on the verge of creating
a new international economic
system, one designed by men
as brilliant as Keynes and
White. Their names are not
well known, but these modern
thinkers are as important
to our age as Keynes and White
were to theirs.

"Moreover,
these economists, like their
World War II counterparts,
are working closely with high
government officials, in this
case President Jimmy Carter
and Vice President Walter
Mondale. And what is now being
discussed at the highest levels
of government, in both the
United States and abroad,
is the creation of a new world
economic system - a system
that will affect jobs in America
and elsewhere, the prices
consumers pay, and the freedom
of individuals, corporations,
and nations to enter into
a truly planetary economic
system. Indeed, many observers
see the advent of the Carter
administration and what is
now being called the "Trilateral"
cabinet as the harbinger of
this new era."1

The
pernicious influence of the
Commission and its dominance
of the U.S. Executive branch
remains unchallenged to this
day.

Ronald
Reagan was not a member of the
Trilateral Commission, but his
Vice President, George H. W.
Bush, was a member. The Commission's
influence was safely perpetuated
into the Reagan years.

The
1988 election of George H.W.
Bush to the presidency further
consolidated Trilateral influence
in the U.S.

In
1992, Trilateral member William
Jefferson Clinton followed in
the presidency and contributed
greatly to the cause of globalization.

In
2000, George W. Bush assumed
the presidency. While it can
be demonstrated that Bush is
closely aligned with and totally
dedicated to Trilateral goals,
he is not a member of the Commission.
However, Vice President Dick
Cheney is a member of the Commission.

Obviously,
Corporate's partnerships with
Political, Academic and Press
has been very successful.

The
Original Membership: 1973-1978

A short look at the first U.S.
membership list is instructive.
We have taken Liberty
to organize the names according
to broad functions, which is not
fully adequate to explain the
interrelationships. As one examines
the biographies of these individuals,
one sees a "revolving door" phenomenon
where people rotate in and out
of government, business, think-tanks,
etc., on a regular basis. This
is one several tests used to identify
a member of the true core of global
elite.

Committee

Rockefeller
and Brzezinski's strategy was
nefarious, yet brilliant.

The
election of democrat James Earl
"I will never lie to you" Carter
was assured by delivering the
mostly democratic labor vote.
This was accomplished by adding
to the inner core: Leonard Woodcock
(UAW), I.W. Abel (United Steelworkers)
and Lane Kirkland (AFL-CIO).

By
1977, three more labor leaders
were added to the membership:
Glenn E. Watts (Communications
Workers of America), Martin
J. Ward (president of United
Association of Journeymen and
Apprentices), and Sol Chaikin,
president of the International
Ladies Garment Workers Union.

Leonard
Woodcock served as Chief Envoy
to China under Carter, and was
largely responsible for solidifying
economic and political ties
with Communist China. [Editor's
note: Any reader who is or was
a member of one of these unions
will instantly have flashes
of insight as to the enduring
duplicity of labor management
-- you were effectively "sold
down the river" starting 1973
and continuing into the present.]

Those
commissioners who Carter brought
into his administration (the
initial "steering committee",
if you will) were Walter Mondale
(Vice President), Zbigniew Brzezinski
(National Security Advisor),
Cyrus Vance (Secretary of State),
Harold Brown (Secretary of Defense)
and W. Michael Blumenthal (Secretary
of the Treasury,) among others.

As
the Washington Post phrased
it:

"Trilateralisms
are not three-sided people.
They are members of a private,
though not secret, international
organization put together by
the wealthy banker, David Rockefeller,
to stimulate the establishment
dialogue between Western Europe,
Japan and the United States.

"But
here is the unsettling thing
about the Trilateral Commission.
The President-elect is a member.
So is Vice-President-elect
Walter F. Mondale. So are
the new Secretaries of State,
Defense and Treasury, Cyrus
R. Vance, Harold Brown and
W. Michael Blumenthal. So
is Zbigniew Brzezinski, who
is a former Trilateral director,
and, Carter's national security
advisor, also a bunch of others
who will make foreign policy
for America in the next four
years."3

Before
Carter's term was completed,
no less than 18 members (thirty
percent of the U.S. Commission
membership) of the Trilateral
Commission served in his administration.
Coincidence? Hardly!

This
article purposely leaves out discussion
of the non-U.S. Membership of
the Commission membership, which
will be saved for another day.
Suffice it to say that the European
and Japanese contingents were
just as powerful and effective
in their respective home countries.
Approximately one-third of the
membership came from Europe and
the other third from Japan. The
joint membership met annually
(no press allowed) to formulate
policy and action plans for their
respective regions. Many, if not
most, of their policies were published
in the Commission's quarterly
journal, Trialogue.

The
most damning argument ever launched
against the Trilateral Commission
is the unconstitutional influence
of other governments and forces
upon the U.S. For instance,
Commission members are not elected
nor representative of the general
population of the U.S., yet
they effectively dominated the
Executive Branch of the U.S.
government. When the Commission
resolved policies (behind closed-doors)
with non-U.S. members, who were
a mere one-third minority, could
it be said that foreign influences
effectively controlled U.S.
policy?

These
concerns were never addressed
by Congress or the Judiciary.
The Executive branch would have
nothing to address because it
has been continuously dominated
by Commission members -- who
repeatedly assured us that there
was no such conflict of interest.
Of course, the answer to these
questions are self-evident:
U.S. interests, economic and
political, have been subverted.

The
economic subversion of the U.S.
was studied in The August Review's
For
Sale: The United States of America
and was likened to the plundering
of a nation, the likes of which
have not been seen in modern
history.

Current
Trilateral Membership

The
following list of north American
members is not exhaustive. These
are selected because of their
high visibility in positions
within Corporate, Political
or Economic and Press. A future
installment of The August Review
will examine the entire membership
list more carefully and completely.
The purpose here is to show
that the Trilateral Commission
has grown, rather than declined,
in strength over the years.

Keep
in mind that there is no enrollment
or application process to belong
to the Trilateral Commission.
One is invited to join in a
manner similar to a college
student being "tapped" for membership
in a fraternity. Thus, the process
is highly selective and discrete.
Candidates are thoroughly screened
before invitation is delivered.
For this reason, one can be
relatively sure that anyone
who is or who has ever been
a member of the Commission is
in the core of the global elite.
There are likely a few members
who are not truly a part of
the core, but for the sake of
aggregate analysis, this is

The
occupational makeup of the Trilateral
Commission has obviously changed
over time, but that only represents
the maturing of the globalization
process. What was needed in
1973 is not what is needed today.
Still, there are some consistencies
that are easily observed.

The
most obvious consistency (and
expansion) is the very large representation
by the banking cartel: two chairmen
and two board members of of the
Federal Reserve System, two presidents
of the World Bank, director of
the International Monetary Fund,
and chairmen/CEO's of several
prominent global banks. This does
not take into account any linkages
from Commission members who are
also directors of commercial and
investment banks. Financial representation
is not incidental because money
is the lifeblood of globalism.
The August Review's coverage in
Global
Banking: The Bank for International
Settlements detailed the apex
and makeup of global banking.

Through
membership, the Trilateral Commission
dominates the executive branch
of the U.S. government, the
Federal Reserve System, and
is closely aligned with the
Bank for International Settlements,
which controls the world's currencies
and money supply. This is seen
even without analyzing the remaining
two-thirds of Commission membership
that resides outside of the
U.S.

The
IIE is an example of a key organization
in which one might identify
other core members of the global
elite. Founded in 1981, IIE
is a small policy-wonk organization
with only 60 employees and an
annual budget of $7 million.
According to its own web site,

"The
Institute for International
Economics is a private,
nonprofit, nonpartisan research
institution devoted to the
study of international economic
policy. Since 1981 the Institute
has provided timely, objective
analysis and concrete solutions
to key international economic
problems.

"The
Institute attempts to anticipate
emerging issues and to be
ready with practical ideas
to inform and shape public
debate. Its audience includes
government officials and legislators,
business and labor leaders,
management and staff at international
organizations, university-based
scholars and their students,
other research institutions
and nongovernmental organizations,
the media, and the public
at large. It addresses these
groups both in the United
States and around the world."5

This
would be easily overlooked unless
you examine IIE's board of directors.
Trilateralist Peter G. Peterson
is chairman of the board. Anthony
M. Solomon is honorary chairman
of the executive committee.
Solomon is the former chairman
of Warburg (USA) Inc., former
president and CEO of the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York and
former Under Secretary of the
Treasury for Monetary Affairs.
Solomon was listed only as "Consultant"
on the 1973 Commission membership
list.6

There
are 12 other Trilateral Commission
members (including David Rockefeller)
on IIE's board of directors!
Having established Trilateral
influence (if not total domination),
consider the following non-Commission
IIE board members who might
well be candidates for inclusion
in the core of the global elite:

These
are just a few of the non-Trilateral
board members, and are reviewed
only to show the process by
which one might identify additional
global elite core members.

There
are other organizations like
IIE that could stand similar
analysis of purpose, leadership
and directorship.

Conclusion

As
was declared in the beginning
of this analysis, the stampede
to globalism is conducted by
a small group of individuals
with aspirations for global
dominance. It should be noted
again that there are members
of the global "core" who are
not members of the Trilateral
Commission.

In
general, they are driven by
lust for money and power. They
have clearly made an end-run
around the American people in
order to achieve personal goals
that, in many cases, are diametrically
opposed to U.S. interests. If
the American people fully understood
the magnitude of the deception
and power-grab, they would immediately
and totally repudiate these
individuals and their self-serving
global schemes.

In
1971, Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote
in Between Two Ages: The
Technetronic Era,

"...the
nation-state as a fundamental
unit of man's organized life
has ceased to be the principal
creative force: International
banks and multinational corporations
are acting and planning in
terms that are far in advance
of the political concepts
of the nation-state."7

Brzezinski
could not have been more clear
than this. Of the few people who
paid attention to Brzezinski previously,
only one person needed to receive
his message fully: David Rockefeller,
chairman of Chase Manhattan Bank
and consummate globalist. When
they teamed up to start the Trilateral
Commission in 1973, the rest,
as we say, "became history."

So,
how can one determine if an
individual is a member of the
core of the global
elite? There is a good chance
that such a person will be:

closely
aligned with and accepted
by many of the people already
identified as core;

often
family-related to other core
members (i.e., the Bush family,
Rockefeller family, etc.);

part
of the "revolving-door" that
switches them in and out of
important and critical positions
in government, academia and
business;

a
member (director or high-level
executive) of an organization
identified as a core company,
such as J.P. Morgan Chase,
Citigroup, Caterpillar Tractor,
etc.;

educated
at a prestigious and global-minded
university;

belong
to one or more organizations
that are dominated by people
already identified as core.

This
list is not comprehensive, nor
is it meant to be some simplistic
litmus test. It is important
to realize that many names being
bandied about are NOT part of
the core of the global elite,
but rather become decoys that
shift the focus away from the
real elite core. Discretion,
common sense and study is required
to understand the difference
between the two.
